So pretty much all you did was put some stickers on your car and change your wheels a few times...Great timeline. Where's the built motors and turbo kits?

The car is an LS. My goal from day one was to have a RELIABLE daily driver that I would tweak to my personal tastes, without trying to make the car something it isn't. All while keeping up with ALL routine maintenence and service, way before recommended intervals.

If you even read a word I wrote, this timeline is to show my progression in the past 5 years with this car, which includes my dedication to maintaining her and the experiences i've had - not "OMG LOOK I TURBOD IT AND NOW ITS FAST AND THEN I BLEW IT UP AND THEN I PAINTED IT PINK AND NOW ITS FOR SALE"

Having said that, I can bet i've had more fun with this car and have progressed my driving abilities both on the track (hpde), street, and autocross in those 105k miles than you've ever had or ever could in any built motor turbocharged supercharged nos'd out whatever the hell.

Thanks for your input though.

The reason people confuse it with a GSR or an ITR is because i've CAREFULLY and STRATEGICALLY planned out every modification to this car... I'm careful with my posessions and treat my investments with respect. Most of the aesthetic mods are taken from the ITR because I believe Honda knew what they were doing and I agree with their "additions" that the ITR comes with stock.

In espanol, Not everyone has the time, money, or desire to have a built motor (N/A or FI) running in their daily driver.

Each persons projected goal for their car is different; It might not be a shared view, but should be respected none-the-less.

Well I believed it to be a gsr for some reason, but not sure how it can be confused with an R; It has 4-Lugs.
